Introducing MyoMatrix™
MyoMatrix™ is a scaffold technology made of natural extracellular matrix proteins. These special proteins are tightly bonded to create an optimized support system for muscle tissue.
In preclinical animal studies, MyoMatrix™ increased muscle strength by 52% only 4 weeks post-implantation with no physical therapy.
At 6 weeks after injury, MyoMatrix™ with simulated physical therapy increased muscle strength by an additional 52%.
